[1] Now there was a long war between Saul’s house and David’s house. David grew stronger and stronger, but Saul’s house grew weaker and weaker. [2] Sons were born to David in Hebron. His firstborn was Amnon, of Ahinoam the Jezreelitess; [3] and his second, Chileab, of Abigail the wife of Nabal the Carmelite; and the third, Absalom the son of Maacah the daughter of Talmai king of Geshur; [4] and the fourth, Adonijah the son of Haggith; and the fifth, Shephatiah the son of Abital; [5] and the sixth, Ithream, of Eglah, David’s wife. These were born to David in Hebron. [6] While there was war between Saul’s house and David’s house, Abner made himself strong in Saul’s house. [7] Now Saul had a concubine, whose name was Rizpah, the daughter of Aiah; and Ishbosheth said to Abner, “Why have you gone in to my father’s concubine?” [8] Then Abner was very angry about Ishbosheth’s words, and said, “Am I a dog’s head that belongs to Judah? Today I show kindness to your father Saul’s house, to his brothers, and to his friends, and have not delivered you into the hand of David; and yet you charge me today with a fault concerning this woman! [9] God do so to Abner, and more also, if, as Yahweh has sworn to David, I don’t do even so to him: [10] to transfer the kingdom from Saul’s house, and to set up David’s throne over Israel and over Judah, from Dan even to Beersheba.” [11] He could not answer Abner another word, because he was afraid of him. [12] Abner sent messengers to David on his behalf, saying, “Whose is the land?” and saying, “Make your alliance with me, and behold, my hand will be with you to bring all Israel around to you.” [13] David said, “Good. I will make a treaty with you, but one thing I require of you. That is, you will not see my face unless you first bring Michal, Saul’s daughter, when you come to see my face.” [14] David sent messengers to Ishbosheth, Saul’s son, saying, “Deliver me my wife Michal, whom I was given to marry for one hundred foreskins of the Philistines.” [15] Ishbosheth sent and took her from her husband, Paltiel the son of Laish. [16] Her husband went with her, weeping as he went, and followed her to Bahurim. Then Abner said to him, “Go! Return!” and he returned. [17] Abner had communication with the elders of Israel, saying, “In times past, you sought for David to be king over you. [18] Now then do it! For Yahweh has spoken of David, saying, ‘By the hand of my servant David, I will save my people Israel out of the hand of the Philistines, and out of the hand of all their enemies.’” [19] Abner also spoke in the ears of Benjamin; and Abner went also to speak in the ears of David in Hebron all that seemed good to Israel and to the whole house of Benjamin. [20] So Abner came to David to Hebron, and twenty men with him. David made Abner and the men who were with him a feast. [21] Abner said to David, “I will arise and go, and will gather all Israel to my lord the king, that they may make a covenant with you, and that you may reign over all that your soul desires.” David sent Abner away; and he went in peace. [22] Behold, David’s servants and Joab came from a raid and brought in a great plunder with them; but Abner was not with David in Hebron, for he had sent him away, and he had gone in peace. [23] When Joab and all the army who was with him had come, they told Joab, “Abner the son of Ner came to the king, and he has sent him away, and he has gone in peace.” [24] Then Joab came to the king and said, “What have you done? Behold, Abner came to you. Why is it that you have sent him away, and he is already gone? [25] You know Abner the son of Ner. He came to deceive you, and to know your going out and your coming in, and to know all that you do.” [26] When Joab had come out from David, he sent messengers after Abner, and they brought him back from the well of Sirah; but David didn’t know it. [27] When Abner had returned to Hebron, Joab took him aside into the middle of the gate to speak with him quietly, and struck him there in the body, so that he died for the blood of Asahel his brother. [28] Afterward, when David heard it, he said, “I and my kingdom are guiltless before Yahweh forever of the blood of Abner the son of Ner. [29] Let it fall on the head of Joab and on all his father’s house. Let there not fail from the house of Joab one who has a discharge, or who is a leper, or who leans on a staff, or who falls by the sword, or who lacks bread.” [30] So Joab and Abishai his brother killed Abner, because he had killed their brother Asahel at Gibeon in the battle. [31] David said to Joab and to all the people who were with him, “Tear your clothes, and clothe yourselves with sackcloth, and mourn in front of Abner.” King David followed the bier. [32] They buried Abner in Hebron; and the king lifted up his voice and wept at Abner’s grave; and all the people wept. [33] The king lamented for Abner, and said, “Should Abner die as a fool dies? [34] Your hands weren’t bound, and your feet weren’t put into fetters. As a man falls before the children of iniquity, so you fell.”All the people wept again over him. [35] All the people came to urge David to eat bread while it was yet day; but David swore, saying, “God do so to me, and more also, if I taste bread or anything else, until the sun goes down.” [36] All the people took notice of it, and it pleased them, as whatever the king did pleased all the people. [37] So all the people and all Israel understood that day that it was not of the king to kill Abner the son of Ner. [38] The king said to his servants, “Don’t you know that a prince and a great man has fallen today in Israel? [39] I am weak today, though anointed king. These men, the sons of Zeruiah are too hard for me. May Yahweh reward the evildoer according to his wickedness.”
King James Version
[1] Now there was long H752 war H4421 between H996 the house H1004 of Saul H7586 and the house H1004 of David: H1732 but David H1732 waxed H1980 stronger H2390 and stronger, H2390 and the house H1004 of Saul H7586 waxed H1980 weaker H1800 and weaker. H1800 [2] And unto David H1732 were sons H1121 born H3205 H3205 in Hebron: H2275 and his firstborn H1060 was Amnon, H550 of Ahinoam H293 the Jezreelitess; H3159 [3] and his second, H4932 Chileab, H3609 of Abigail H26 the wife H802 of Nabal H5037 the Carmelite; H3761 and the third, H7992 Absalom H53 the son H1121 of Maacah H4601 the daughter H1323 of Talmai H8526 king H4428 of Geshur; H1650 [4] and the fourth, H7243 Adonijah H138 the son H1121 of Haggith; H2294 and the fifth, H2549 Shephatiah H8203 the son H1121 of Abital; H37 [5] and the sixth, H8345 Ithream, H3507 by Eglah H5698 David’s H1732 wife. H802 These H428 were born H3205 to David H1732 in Hebron. H2275 [6] And it came to pass, while there was war H4421 between H996 the house H1004 of Saul H7586 and the house H1004 of David, H1732 that Abner H74 made himself strong H2388 for the house H1004 of Saul. H7586 [7] And Saul H7586 had a concubine, H6370 whose name H8034 was Rizpah, H7532 the daughter H1323 of Aiah: H345 and Ish-bosheth said H559 to Abner, H74 Wherefore hast thou gone in H935 unto H413 my father’s H1 concubine? H6370 [8] Then was Abner H74 very H3966 wroth H2734 for the words H1697 of Ish-bosheth, H378 and said, H559 Am I a dog’s H3611 head, H7218 which H834 against H5921 Judah H3063 do shew H6213 kindness H2617 this day H3117 unto H413 the house H1004 of Saul H7586 thy father, H1 to his brethren, H251 and to his friends, H4828 and have not delivered H4672 thee into the hand H3027 of David, H1732 that thou chargest H6485 me to day H3117 with H5973 a fault H5771 concerning H5921 this woman? H802 [9] So do H6213 God H430 to Abner, H74 and more also, H3254 except, as the Lord H3068 hath sworn H7650 to David, H1732 even so I do H6213 to him; [10] to translate H5674 the kingdom H4467 from the house H1004 of Saul, H7586 and to set up H6965 H853 the throne H3678 of David H1732 over H5921 Israel H3478 and over Judah, H3063 from Dan H1835 even to Beer-sheba. H884 [11] And he could H3201 not H3808 answer H7725 H853 Abner H74 a word H1697 again, because he feared H3372 him.

David, Abner, and Joab

[12] And Abner H74 sent H7971 messengers H4397 to David H1732 on his behalf, saying, H559 Whose is the land? H776 saying H559 also, Make H3772 thy league H1285 with me, and, behold, my hand H3027 shall be with thee, to bring about H5437 all H3605 Israel H3478 unto thee.
[13] And he said, H559 Well; H2896 I will make H3772 a league H1285 with H854 thee: but one H259 thing H1697 I require H7592 of thee, that is, H559§ Thou shalt not see H7200 my face, H6440 except thou first H6440 bring H935 H853 Michal H4324 Saul’s H7586 daughter, H1323 when thou comest H935 to see H7200 my face. H6440 [14] And David H1732 sent H7971 messengers H4397 to Ish-bosheth H378 Saul’s H7586 son, H1121 saying, H559 Deliver H5414 H853 me my wife H802 H853 Michal, H4324 which H834 I espoused H781 to me for an hundred H3967 foreskins H6190 of the Philistines. H6430 [15] And Ish-bosheth H378 sent, H7971 and took H3947 her from her husband, H376 even from Phaltiel H6409 the son H1121 of Laish. H3889 H3919 [16] And her husband H376 went H3212 with H854 her along weeping H1980§ H1058 behind H310 her to Bahurim. H980 Then said H559 Abner H74 unto him, Go, H3212 return. H7725 And he returned. H7725 [17] And Abner H74 had communication H1961 H1697 with H5973 the elders H2205 of Israel, H3478 saying, H559 Ye sought H1245 H853 for David H1732 in times H8543 past H8032§ to be king H4428 over you: [18] now H6258 then do H6213 it: for the Lord H3068 hath spoken H559 of David, H1732 saying, H559 By the hand H3027 of my servant H5650 David H1732 I will save H3467 H853 my people H5971 Israel H3478 out of the hand H3027 of the Philistines, H6430 and out of the hand H3027 of all their enemies. H341 [19] And Abner H74 also H1571 spake H1696 in the ears H241 of Benjamin: H1144 and Abner H74 went H3212 also H1571 to speak H1696 in the ears H241 of David H1732 in Hebron H2275 all H3605 that seemed H5869 good H2896 to Israel, H3478 and that seemed good H5869 to the whole house H1004 of Benjamin. H1144 [20] So Abner H74 came H935 to David H1732 to Hebron, H2275 and twenty H6242 men H582 with H854 him. And David H1732 made H6213 Abner H74 and the men H582 that were with him a feast. H4960 [21] And Abner H74 said H559 unto H413 David, H1732 I will arise H6965 and go, H3212 and will gather H6908 all H3605 Israel H3478 unto H413 my lord H113 the king, H4428 that they may make H3772 a league H1285 with H854 thee, and that thou mayest reign H4427 over all that thine heart H5315 desireth. H183 And David H1732 sent H7971 Abner H74 away; H7971 and he went H3212 in peace. H7965 [22] And, behold, the servants H5650 of David H1732 and Joab H3097 came H935 from pursuing a troop, H1416 and brought in H935 a great H7227 spoil H7998 with H5973 them: but Abner H74 was not with David H1732 in Hebron; H2275 for H3588 he had sent him away, H7971 and he was gone H3212 in peace. H7965 [23] When Joab H3097 and all the host H6635 that was with him were come, H935 they told H5046 Joab, H3097 saying, H559 Abner H74 the son H1121 of Ner H5369 came H935 to the king, H4428 and he hath sent him away, H7971 and he is gone H3212 in peace. H7965 [24] Then Joab H3097 came H935 to the king, H4428 and said, H559 What H4100 hast thou done? H6213 behold, Abner H74 came H935 unto thee; why is it that thou hast sent him away, H7971 and he is quite H1980 gone? H3212 [25] Thou knowest H3045 H853 Abner H74 the son H1121 of Ner, H5369 that he came H935 to deceive H6601 thee, and to know H3045 H853 thy going out H4161 and thy coming in, H4126 H3996 and to know H3045 all H3605 that thou doest. H6213 [26] And when Joab H3097 was come out H3318 from David, H1732 he sent H7971 messengers H4397 after H310 Abner, H74 which brought him again H7725 from the well H953 of Sirah: H5626 but David H1732 knew H3045 it not. [27] And when Abner H74 was returned H7725 to Hebron, H2275 Joab H3097 took him aside H5186 in H413 H8432 the gate H8179 to speak H1696 with H854 him quietly, H7987§ and smote H5221 him there under the fifth H2570 rib, that he died, H4191 for the blood H1818 of Asahel H6214 his brother. H251 [28] And afterward H310 when David H1732 heard H8085 it, he said, H559 I and my kingdom H4467 are guiltless H5355 before the Lord H3068 for H5704 ever H5769 from the blood H1818§ of Abner H74 the son H1121 of Ner: H5369 [29] let it rest H2342 on the head H7218 of Joab, H3097 and on all his father’s H1 house; H1004 and let there not fail H3772§ from the house H1004 of Joab H3097 one that hath an issue, H2100 or that is a leper, H6879 or that leaneth H2388 on a staff, H6418 or that falleth H5307 on the sword, H2719 or that lacketh H2638 bread. H3899 [30] So Joab H3097 and Abishai H52 his brother H251 slew H2026 Abner, H74 because he had slain H4191 their brother H251 H853 Asahel H6214 at Gibeon H1391 in the battle. H4421 [31] And David H1732 said H559 to Joab, H3097 and to all the people H5971 that were with him, Rend H7167 your clothes, H899 and gird H2296 you with sackcloth, H8242 and mourn H5594 before H6440 Abner. H74 And king H4428 David H1732 himself followed H1980 H310 the bier. H4296§ [32] And they buried H6912 Abner H74 in Hebron: H2275 and the king H4428 lifted up H5375 H853 his voice, H6963 and wept H1058 at the grave H6913 of Abner; H74 and all the people H5971 wept. H1058 [33] And the king H4428 lamented H6969 over Abner, H74 and said, H559
Died H4191 Abner H74 as a fool H5036 dieth? H4194
[34] Thy hands H3027 were not bound, H631 nor thy feet H7272 put H5066 into fetters: H5178
As a man falleth H5307 before H6440 wicked H5766 men, H1121§ so fellest H5307 thou.And all the people H5971 wept H1058 again H3254 over him.
[35] And when all H3605 the people H5971 came H935 to cause H1262 David H1732 to eat H1262 meat H3899 while it was yet H5750 day, H3117 David H1732 sware, H7650 saying, H559 So H3541 do H6213 God H430 to me, and more also, H3254 if I taste H2938 bread, H3899 or ought H3972 else, till H6440 the sun H8121 be down. H935 [36] And all the people H5971 took notice H5234 of it, and it pleased H3190 H5869 them:§ as whatsoever the king H4428 did H6213 pleased H5869 H2896 all H3605 the people. H5971 [37] For H3588 all H3605 the people H5971 and all Israel H3478 understood H3045 that day H3117 that it was not of the king H4428 to slay H4191 H853 Abner H74 the son H1121 of Ner. H5369 [38] And the king H4428 said H559 unto H413 his servants, H5650 Know H3045 ye not that there is a prince H8269 and a great man H1419 fallen H5307 this H2088 day H3117 in Israel? H3478 [39] And I am this day H3117 weak, H7390§ though anointed H4886 king; H4428 and these men H582 the sons H1121 of Zeruiah H6870 be too hard H7186 for me: the Lord H3068 shall reward H7999 the doer of evil H6213 according to his wickedness.
